In December 2024, after multiple rounds of negotiations, China Development Bank entered into a one-year USD 100 million financing agreement with CGNPC Huasheng Investment Limited (the "Borrower") to provide a refinancing loan intended to support general working capital purposes.
The loan will help to maintain CGNPC’s stable arrangements in overseas resource allocation, capital operations, asset integration and financial connections and is intended to support the Borrower's operations in the nuclear energy field. The loan may also contribute to project finance initiatives, such as meeting working capital needs or developing new nuclear power projects. This was a large transaction involving multiple rounds of negotiations. The transaction was unique as the proceeds will be used as the working capital of the nuclear company and to develop new nuclear power projects.
